boundary fence
Edge-marking barrier
A boundary fence marks the dividing line between adjacent properties.
Unlike interior fences built for privacy or containment, boundary fences establish where one owner's land ends and another's begins.
Legal responsibility for maintenance often falls on both neighbors, though customs and laws vary by jurisdiction.
The surveyor confirmed the old boundary fence was actually three feet inside our property line.
